Rev. R. P. Jackson.
The present pastor of the Dacula circuit, Rev. R. P. Jackson, was born
in White county, Georgia, four miles east of Cleveland, in 1871, remaining
there on the farm until 1901, when he moved to Clarksville, Habersham county,
to enter the mercantile business. He was in this business for seven years and,
in spite of the misfortune of fire, succeeded. In 1909, he joined the North
Georgia Conference and was sent to the South Lumpkin Mission in Lumpkin
county, Georgia, serving that mission one year with great success. Then in
1910, he loccated at Murrayville, Hall county, and was transferred to the
Dacula circuit, consisting of six churches with 878 members. The Dacula
circuit up to the present, since he has taken charge, has broken all previous
records both spiritually and financially.
